. Pot users for the most part also dumb. ( majority rules. Lot of dumb regular people means the odds of a smoker being dumb are pretty good. )

I would say yes and no. I have known a lot of people who are pretty smart, but never put their smarts to any good, like get an education. They get stuck in time and just do what they do to get by. They are just like average Joe, have bills, pay check to pay check.

Then yes you have some that are "dumb" as you say, but where more or less that way from the beginning. :ror:

As far as being a pot user and going nowhere in life. Also Untrue. Who's to say pot was what stopped them? It could have helped but there are just to many factors. Maybe they were destine to be a ( insert crappy job/ living situation ) from the start with no use of mj. Just my .02

Again I would say yes and no. I have seen people come from both ends of the spectrum. From rich kids that had all the chances in the world but never did anything with them. I also seen the less fortunate go nowhere and never applied themselves, just did the get high thing.

I myself came from an upper middle class family. I have always lived middle class and at times a bit above that. Where I am at right now is a rebuild of myself and a lot of catching up to do for my future.

That is where I was going with saying I have nothing to show for what I did, the future as in retirement. Also a "paid for" investment in myself which I should have at this time in life. I also missed a lot of opportunities in life because I was too wrapped up in living a life style I thought was alright at the time.

What I posted above you don't find on google, real life. The dark side of this that few share and nobody wants to hear.

Take it for whats it's worth. 8)

So the only way you can put your smarts to use is by getting an education? The average Joe is not smart? Being an average Joe deems your life worthless? I’m sure some people don’t mind living, paying bills, living check to check as long as they are content with the situation. That’s all that should matter; the individual should be content with how the life path they chose is working for them. You could be an awesome brain surgeon making a lot of money but hate your life because you’re stressed all the time for example.

I am sorry what I said came across as that. I agree to what ever makes you happy, do it! "thumbsup"


I am just going off of the people I have known and myself, the older dope smokers. I have heard from most of them saying they wish they would of been doing something different and got an education. I myself have said that too. Money has always been the excuse to go. But when I think back at the money I spent on MJ when I was young. I could of went to school. Dude, you got to realize we didn't have computers or the education they have now in HS when I was there.

In today's world an education beyond HS is a good thing. It's just going to be even more demanding in the future. Just relying on a good job that just requires a HS education is not going to work all the time and only go so far.

I am in that situation now. My career is maxed out, has been for a long time now and paying less to start than it was 4 or 5 years ago. It's going backwards for some reason. Skill required? yes, education? HS or GED.

Can I go to school now? Yep, will I be hired? probably not, getting old my friend.

Thanks, I know the in site wasn't pretty, but I felt it should be shared.

Enough of the thread derail. BOT!! :ror:
 
The old saying comes to mind:

"better to remain silent and thought an idiot than to open your mouth and remove all doubt"

or for today's world:

"better to not post and be thought and idiot than to post and remove all doubt"
